Welcome to Kid’s Track, the children's ministry at DOVE Westgate Church! We want to encourage
families to engage and we strive to offer a family-friendly environment for all who attend.
We don’t see Kid’s Track as just a form of childcare – we truly seek to inspire your children to see
the value in their families and to simply love Jesus and grow in their relationship with Him!
​
Kid’s Track provides ministry for infants through 5th grade. In addition to regular Sunday activities, Kid’s Track meets
on the 3rd Sunday of each month for a time of Children’s Worship, designed for children preschool through 5th grade.
​
See below for more information on what to expect each Sunday morning, volunteer opportunities
{including a downloadable version of our Kid's Track Volunteer Application}, and resources
for current volunteers including schedules, training, and teaching aids.
​
For more information, please contact our Kid's Track Director, Joy Glick, at joyg@dwchurch.org.
What to
EXPECT
WHAT IS A TYPICAL SUNDAY LIKE?
Our Sunday service starts at 9:30 AM and right from the start, we invite families to connect during our corporate worship. Flags are available for children of all ages. After our time of praise and worship, the children and the Kid's Track volunteers are dismissed to their classrooms, where you will be able to pick up your
child once the service is over. Kid's Track
"Roundhouse" Worship is held in the Kid's Track Area every 3rd Sunday of the month. Parents can check in their children before 9:30 AM.
​
WHAT ABOUT SAFETY?
Safety is one of the primary focal points for Kid’s Track. All of our volunteers have current state-required background checks, at least two volunteers are in each classroom at all times, and we employ a bracelet system for all children under 1st grade. We also have a private room for nursing mothers that includes a closed-circuit TV. We welcome any of your questions and concerns about your child’s safety.
"Children are a heritage from the LORD, offspring a reward from him. Like arrows in the hands
of a warrior are children born in one’s youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them.
They will not be put to shame when they contend with their opponents in court."
​
Psalms 127:3-5
How You Can
SERVE
INTERESTING IN VOLUNTEERING?
If so, we would love to have you on the Kid's Track team! Between Nursery, Preschool, and Elementary, there are plenty of opportunities for you to serve. Sunday mornings in Kid's Track provide an excellent place to get involved, build relationships with kids, and help them grow in their love for Christ.
​
If you have a heart that loves God and a desire to help children discover a relationship with Him, we would love to have you join our team!
Our children's safety is of the utmost importance and priority for Kid's Track and as such, all volunteers are required by law to undergo a background check.

Teaching
AIDS & HELP
Our desire at DOVE Westgate Church is to have a Children's Ministry team that is equipped mentally, spiritually, and emotionally in order to engage children at the most dynamic level. This can be difficult if expectations are not clear and additional ideas and resources are not provided.
​
Below are teaching aids and helpful resources for Kid’s Track volunteers to pull from as often as necessary.
Don't hesitate to contact our Kid’s Track Director, Joy Glick, if you have ideas that would enhance this list!
